Summary: The foldables and answers to the questions will be collected and graded. I will hand them back next period so students may use them for study guides. Students will use pipe cleaners to model the phases of meiosis to make sure they understand that genetically different hapliod offspring result from the process. I will walk around to each group of students to make sure they are correctly modeling the process. This activity should take about half of the period. The second half will be spent going over sex-linked traits.
Homework: Research a genetic disorder. Describe whether it is a dominant or recessive disorder and how a person inherits it from their parents.
Objectives:
Students will successfully model the phases of meiosis using pipe cleaners.
Students will explain the concept of sex-linked traits.
